Ingredients


3/4 cup Peanut butter, natural
1/2 cup Tamari, gluten free, reduced sodium
1 piece, 2-inch Ginger root (peeled)
1/4 cup Rice vinegar (regular, not seasoned)
1/4 cup Sesame oil
2 tbsp Brown sugar
2 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil, garlic-infused
1/2 tsp Chili powder
3 tbsp Water
400 gm Tofu, regular, extra firm
2 medium Carrots (peeled; stem end removed)
1 medium pepper(s) Red bell pepper (cored)
1 medium Zucchini (stem end removed)
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil, garlic-infused
1/4 cup Cilantro (coriander) (leaves; optional)
1/4 cup Green onion (chopped; green parts only)

Instructions


  1. Make the Sauce: Combine peanut butter, tamari, ginger, rice vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar, oil, and chilli powder in a blender and blend until smooth and combined. Scrape down the blender as needed. Thin with water. Add extra water if needed to thin out to a flowing texture. Taste and add more spice if desired. Set aside.
  2. Press the tofu with a paper towel to remove any excess water. Cut the tofu block into 1-inch cubes.
  3. Meanwhile, use a spiralizer to cut the carrots, bell peppers, and zucchini. Alternatively, you can grate the carrots and zucchini and cut the pepper into 1/4-inch (6 mm) sticks or use a julienne peeler to prep all the veggies.
  4. Heat a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat, add Garlic-Infused Oil, and heat until it shimmers. Add tofu and cook for several minutes until golden brown. Flip the tofu over and cook for a few more minutes until the second side is golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  5. Toss the veggies in a large bowl with enough peanut sauce to coat it lightly. Arrange the tofu on top, drizzle with more sauce, garnish with cilantro and green onions.
  6. Serve warm or at room temperature. The dish can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature before serving.
